Supplementary note

Molecular modeling

Preparation of structures for molecular modeling. Crystal structures of the haloalkane

dehalogenases were obtained from RSCB PDB database using following accession codes:

1CQW (DhaA), 3SK0 (DhaA12) and 3A2M (DbjA). The catalytic histidine was substituted by

phenylalanine in all protein structures and the mutations Val172Ala, Ile209Leu and Gly292Ala

were modeled to the crystal structure of DhaA to achieve correspondence with the

experimentally used haloalkane dehalogenase DhaA from the strain NCIMB13064

(DDBJ/GenBank/EMBL accession no. AF060871). All mutations were designed in

PyMOL 1.4.1 (Schrödinger). Hydrogen atoms were added to the protein structures using H++

server at pH 7.51.

Molecular docking. The fluorescent probe consisting of coumarin 120 dye carrying

covalent alkyl-halogen linker (Supplementary Fig. 6a) was built in PyMOL 1.4.1. The

geometry of probe molecule was optimized using AM1 semi-empirical quantum chemical

method2 implemented in the program MOPAC2009 (Stewart Computational Chemistry). The

structures of the enzymes and the fluorescent probe were prepared for docking calculation by

MGLTools 1.5.03. The fluorescent probe was docked into the active sites of all three studied

enzymes using the program AUTODOCK 3.054. The atomic and electrostatic maps were

calculated using AUTOGRID 3.064. Range of grid maps was set to 95 95 95 grid points

with spacing 0.25 Å centered on CG atom of substituted phenylalanine to cover the whole

active site and the main tunnel of both enzymes. In total, 250 docking calculations were

performed employing the Lamarckian Genetic Algorithm with the following parameters: initial

population size 150, maximum of 1.5 106 energy evaluations and 27,000 generations, elitism

value 1, mutation rate 0.02 and cross-over rate 0.8. The local search was based on the pseudo

Solis and Wets algorithm with a maximum of 300 iterations per local search5. The final

orientations from each docking were clustered with a clustering tolerance for the

root-mean-square positional deviation of 2 Å.

Parameterization of modified amino acid residue for molecular dynamics simulation. The

novel residue representing the fluorescent probe covalently bound to the nucleophile of an

aspartic acid (Supplementary Fig. 6b) was parameterized by analogy with the Cornell et al.

force field6. The only exception was the aromatic oxygen that was present in the moiety of

fluorescent probe. The required parameters were obtained from the VanBeek et al7. The novel

residue was constructed from two fragments (i) the coumarin probe capped with

N-methylamide (NME) residue (Supplementary Fig. 7), and (ii) the covalent linker capped with

acetyl (ACE) residue covalently bound to the aspartic acid residue capped with NME and ACE

Nature Chemical Biology: doi:10.1038/nchembio.1502

residues (Supplementary Fig. 8). The coumarin fragment was modeled in two lowest-energy

conformations (Supplementary Fig. 7), while the second fragment was modeled in three

lowest-energy conformations keeping the helical conformation of the aspartic acid residue

(Supplementary Fig. 8). The geometry of all lowest-energy conformations were energy

minimized with MP2/6-31G* wave function using Gaussian09 program revision C.01

(Gaussian, 2009). The partial atomic charges of the novel residue were obtained using RESP

ESP charge Derive 2.0 server8,9

, with HF/6-31G* level of theory. The charges on the fragments

were developed employing RESP-A1A charge model, using multi-conformation

multi-orientation RESP fits. During the fitting procedure, the charges on the capping NME and

ACE residues were constrained to zero. The charges on the four peptide bond atoms

(N43, H44, C45 and O46) of the second fragment were constrained to the values corresponding

to the charges on respective atoms of the electro-neutral residues from the Cornell et al. force

field6. The charges and atom types for both fragments are provided in the Supplementary

Table 7 and Supplementary Table 8.

Molecular dynamics simulation. The covalently bound alkyl-enzyme intermediates were

manually modeled from the enzyme-substrate complexes obtained from the docking

calculations. All enzyme-substrate complexes complying with the basic geometrical

prerequisites of SN2 reaction in the haloalkane dehalogenases10

were selected (Supplementary

Fig. 9-11), and the alkyl-enzyme intermediates were prepared by deleting the chloride atom and

placing the carbon atom 1 Å closer to the nucleophile oxygen atom of the aspartic acid residue

106 (DhaA and DhaA12) and 103 (DbjA). Water molecules from the crystal structure were

added to the systems to their original positions with the exception of water molecules

overlapping with the docked probes. The systems were neutralized by adding 16, 21 and 7 Na+

ions to DhaA, DhaA12 and DbjA complexes, respectively, using Tleap module of

AmberTools11 (University of California, 2010). Using the same module, an octahedron of

TIP3P water molecules11

was added to the distance of 10 Å from any solute atom in the

systems. Energy minimization and MD simulations were carried out in PMEMD module of

AMBER11 (University of California, 2010) using ff99SB force field12

. The investigated

systems were minimized by 500 steps of steepest descent followed by 500 steps of conjugate

gradient in five rounds of decreasing harmonic restraints. The restraints were applied as

follows: 500 kcal.mol-1

.Å-2

on all heavy atoms of protein, and then 500, 125, 25 and

0 kcal.mol-1

.Å-2

on backbone atoms only. The consequent MD simulations employed periodic

boundary conditions, the particle mesh Ewald method for treatment of the electrostatic

interactions13,14

, 10 Å cutoff for nonbonded interactions, and 2 ft time step with the SHAKE

algorithm to fix all bonds containing hydrogens15

. Equilibration simulations consisted of two

steps: (i) 20 ps of gradual heating from 0 to 300 K under constant volume, using a Langevin

Nature Chemical Biology: doi:10.1038/nchembio.1502

thermostat with collision frequency of 1.0 ps-1

, and with harmonic restraints of

5.0 kcal.mol-1

.Å-2

on the position of all protein atoms, and (ii) 2000 ps of unrestrained MD at

300 K using the Langevin thermostat, and constant pressure of 1.0 bar using pressure coupling

constant of 1.0 ps. Finally, production MD simulations were run for 50 ns with the same

settings as the second step of equilibration MD. Coordinates were saved in 5 ps interval, and

the trajectories were analyzed using Ptraj and Cpptraj modules of AmberTools11, and

visualized in Pymol 1.4.1 and VMD 1.8.916

. The average binding energies of each binding

mode were evaluated using Molecular-Mechanics/Generalized-Born Surface Area17,18

. Every

second frame from the equilibrated part of the molecular dynamics trajectories was selected for

the analysis. The following settings were used for the calculation: PBradii were set to mbondi2

and Generalized-Born model to 518

. The analysis was performed with MMPBSA.py python

script of AmberTools11. The binding modes with the lowest energies were then selected for the

detailed analysis of each system (Supplementary Table 9).

Supplementary Figure 5. Acrylamide quenching of coumarin fluorescence for the haloalkane

dehalogenase variants. Stern-Volmer plots for DbjA (■), DhaA (Δ) and DhaA12 (○) provided

Stern-Volmer constants of 0.29 ± 0.04 M-1

, 0.11 ± 0.02 M-1

and 0.23 ± 0.06 M-1

respectively.

The linearity of those graphs indicates that those enzymes are specifically labeled. The

accessibility of the coumarin dye to the acrylamide molecules is substantially higher in the case

of the mutants DbjA and DhaA12 than in the case of DhaA. Stern-Volmer constant for DbjA

and DhaA12 are comparable, confirming the fact that the tunnel architecture of these enzymes

is similar. The emission spectra recorded before and after the quenching procedure did not

show any differences for all herein investigated mutants further indicating that the coumarin

dye possesses single location within the protein scaffold. Three experiments were performed

for DhaA and DbjA, and duplicate measurements were carried out in the case of DhaA12. Data

represent mean values ± s.d.

0 corresponds to the emission maximum of “time zero spectrum” which is a spectrum emitted from the

completely non-relaxed Franck-Condon state and which was determined by the modified “time 0

. The rest of the given parameters was obtained by the analysis of the

time dependence of time resolved emission spectra (TRES): ) stands for the emission maximum of the

spectrum from fully relaxed state which was obtained by extrapolation of (t) to t . represents the

overall dynamic Stokes Shift derived as 0 - ultiexponential fitting of time evolution of the

Ai correspond to the amplitudes, r is the integral relaxation time, and % obs. corresponds to the percentage

of the solvent relaxation process captured with the given experimental time resolution of 30 ps. Four

experiments were performed for DhaA and DbjA, and duplicate measurements were carried out in the case

of DhaA12. Data represent mean values ± s.d. i and Ai parameters were gained by the non-linear least

square fitting with 3-exponential function. Fitting procedure yielded standard deviation lower than 10% for
